Colour INKspiration Challenge #CI105

 Hello and welcome,

I'm a little bit late in posting this blog for the latest Colour INKspiration Challenge here are the details below. 

It's the latest Colour INKspiration Challenge #CI105 and this beautiful photo was chosen by Jan Clothier one of the Design Crew Members. I love freesias and I can feel spring is in the air with warmer days in Melbourne. I do hop you'll join in the challenge! It's a stunning colour palette and photo.

The colour combination for #CI105 is Fresh Freesia, Mango Melody, Old Olive and Very Vanilla. As well as the chosen colours you may also add Basic White, Basic Black, Crumb Cake, Sahara Sand and metallics to your project. We also allow 'Ivory' and 'Bronze' in the Stampin' Blends. If you don't have all the colour palette, feel free to use the closest SU substitute (ie: Highland Heather instead of Fresh Freesia .... you get the drift). 

The challenge will run for almost 2 weeks until 7pm (AEST) on Monday 23 August 2021 details to follow at the end of my blog.

For my card I've created a subtle watercolour look using the challenge colours, Watercolor Paper and the Pierced Blooms Dies which you can find in the Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue 2021 - 2022. The die-cut flowers, leaves and centers come in several sizes and I just love the stitching detail.

The card base is Very Vanilla Cardstock and with an additional panel in Very Vanilla. The beautiful Fresh Freesia gingham paper from the Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper is torn on one side. Something I love to do with paper and show what's underneath. 

The other elements for the card is the scalloped border die from the Penned Flowers Dies, Very Vanilla Baker's Twine and the sentiment stamped in Fresh Freesia Ink stamped onto a strip of Basic White Cardstock. The delicate Fresh Freesia Jewels placed in the center of the flowers to finish off the card.

I hope you can participate in this latest round and as we so look forward to seeing a variety of projects using the challenge colours. Please ensure that your project is new and made specially for this challenge.

Colour INKspiration Challenge #CI105 will run until 7pm (ADET) on Monday 23 August 2021.
